Travis Corley and Mike Eise are back to talk about this weird period in American politics and even weirder year. 

But where do these things formulate? How did we get to this point with Donald Trump and the antics he is pulling. Well on this episode of the Q we delve into that aspect of life. Travis brings up that the Stone Cold character from the 1990's of wrestling seems to be what Trump feels like. The crowd responds to it and everything. Problem is Mark knows this from his wrestling past and has touched on it before on the Q, but the guys go deeper this time. How do these two equate in the minds of many rural conservative? The guys discuss! 

Also COVID is rearing it's ugly head in the USA again and being a promoter, Travis Corley is constantly dealing with this city of STL and surrounding areas to try and put on shows. He has one coming up at Red Flag on Nov. 28th but it's all still up in the air on the protocols and how things will be received. The guys discuss the current re-emerging of COVID and if this time the US can stomp it out...this leads to a convo about Trumps Million MAGA march and how he views the "voters" and "supporters" of his situation. 

All this and much more on this episode of The Q.

Voter Fraud is the number thing on the "holdouts" mind currently. The Holdout being Donald Trump and his inability to get any lawsuits or things to go his way regarding the frivolous claims about the 2020 election being rigged or having fraudulent voting. 

Gary Weed joins on this down week to discuss the presidents claims to Voter Fraud, and lines out with Mark Bland how Trump is actually responsible for all his problems he has had regarding this election. It's a classic example of a guy shooting himself in the foot and blaming others. 

Also Mark and Gary discuss some sports and specifically how the Houston Astros former manager and the Red Sox former manager were able to get jobs in the MLB after the massive cheating scandal that they got caught in. 

All this and much much more available on this episode of the Q!

So the 2020 election happened and so many things are still uncertain. Mark is joined by Jason Kull, Gary Weed and Jonathan May to discuss everything that happened on 11/3/2020 and throughout the entire election process...yet here we are an do we know who won for sure? 

Finally, the guys start to go down some more entertaining but x-rated alleys in the later half of the show. Make sure if you are listening with younger people to watch for the language.

It's time....Biden or Trump? Who you got. We are gonna find out if the country becomes worse or better Election night 2020. But the Q is here to talk about all of it. 

First up Mike Eise is our guest on this show. He's a bracelet winning World Series of Poker champion based here in St. Louis, MO.  He's also a fellow broadcaster with some background being on other shows in the St. Louis area discussing poker. But we aren't discussing poker this time. We talking politics and life. To do this we also welcome back to the show, our favorite LIBERAL Andy Echele (we kid, we kid).

It's been a very long road to this time period. For 4 years it's been rough and the guys sit back and discuss Biden and Trump. The good and the bad....who will win this, we aren't sure. But for the third time in Q show history the guys will choose who they think will win and how it end up afterwards. Are they gonna be as accurate as Mark was in 2010, 2012, 2014 and 2018? 4 out of 5 ain't too shabby. 

First up Andy decides to let everyone know he's way way way more liberal than Mark is. Which is weird since Andy forgot that this is recorded audio for posterity and people can go back and listen to any show he's been on. But Mark play's along to keep the natives from being restless. 

Mark and the boys discuss old things others might have forgotten from our past. Andy brings up Biden and complaining about the republicans were the reason he couldn't do anything. Mark reminds everyone of the republican decree after the 2012 election and how in 2013/2014 the country ended up being shut down for a month because of republicans stomping their foot and whining about the budget.  Mark also reminds everyone of the deficit and how nobody has talked about it for 4 years, but if Biden wins, it's time to break that old argument out. 

There is so much discussion in this show and we are the precipice of a historic situation. Not because of the winner or loser. But simply because of the anger of the republicans and there need and want to be like Kenosha Kyle and hurt others purposefully. It's become their bell to ring. Will it happen....we don't know but we talk a lot in this final episode of the Q before/after the National Election of 2020!
